Robert De Niro, honored with the Lifetime Achievement Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, sharply criticized Trump administration's imposition of a 100-percent tariff on foreign films, labeling it a misguided attack on the arts. "You can't put a price on creativity, but apparently you can put a tariff on it," he said, calling the tariff and related policy "unacceptable." De Niro framed the issue as one of global concern, urging immediate action to counter what he sees as an assault on creative freedom.
